    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    The Thrawn trilogy holds a special place because it was the first part of the Expanded Universe and the first non-comic post ROTJ content created. Thrawn himself is a fantastic character and that is why he got used in Rebels to good effect. Mara Jade was another great character who has never...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    She was on the stage and interviewed but I did not see Kelly Marie Tran in the actual teaser trailer. Anyone catch her? edit: found a pic, so she's definitely around but maybe not too much. Certainly improved on her hair / overall look.

    My favorite character is back!! "Roll it again" I lost my shit.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    So it's looking likely that Discovery gets tossed into the future and thereby will allow us to explore some timeline past TNG/DS9/VOY. Though obviously Spock can't be on the ship when it happens so something has to get him off the ship before they wormhole away. Seems odd that Ash Tyler...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Civil War is amazing but it's really Avengers 2.5. They should use that as a model for how to set up other big tentpole movies now that we are moving past Infinity Stones.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Well they confirmed Alan Tudyk will be back for the Cassian Andor series on Disney+, so that's encouraging

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    In many ways Rogue One has the commando attack on an Imperial Installation that we should have gotten with ROTJ. For all the problems with SOLO I think Rogue One demonstrates there is room for more stories within the broader context.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Return of the Jedi was, in many ways, a mistake but one that was born of the era. Following Empire Strikes Back you could easily have had several follow-on movies that documented the continual back-and-forth nature of the conflict with the Empire/Sith/Force etc. Instead we got a single...

    The Addams Family

    They are trying to mimic the original Charles Addams strips from the New Yorker. I think they were worried that not having a PIXAR-like fully computer rendered world would kill them for marketing to their core family audience.

    How do you run without any heal?

    The Division 2

    So was doing Tidal Basin when a mob dropped a 5th piece of True Patriot gear. Since it was a PUG I figured I'd just screw around and equipped the 5 pieces. The Red, White and Blue business is pretty damn cool.

    Love, Death & Robots

    Finally saw Good Hunting. Don't think I've ever seen something as purely Steampunk as this actually get made. Very impressive

    Operencia:The stolen sun

    So binged the game this weekend and I'm super impressed with it and sad that I seem to be nearing the end. Always cool to see fantasy through the lens of a different culture and the game mechanics are pretty darn nice. Also a plus: it's a lesser known title so if you get stuck on a puzzle the...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Not exactly shocking that a famously acerbic lesbian comic would be playing an acerbic lesbian engineer.

    Operencia:The stolen sun

    Been playing this after I saw it at PAX and then realized it was part of Xbox Game Pass. Lots of fun if you are a fan of the Bard Tale type genre (which I very much am) and the full voice acting is a nice touch even allowing for your own character to have both a voice and class specific...

    Breach -- QC Games

    Thank You DOA Guess there weren't enough Early Access users so they are shutting down the company effective immediately.

    Borderlands 3

    I love Borderlands, I might get the collec...tors... $250?!?!? Okay so I'll be getting Deluxe then.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    It isn't that Frostbite caused them to fail so much as that it was a 100 lbs weight hanging around their necks that made everything much more difficult than it should have been. It's been a perpetual handicap that just drains stamina from teams. The whole studio suffered from it for...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    What does it take for EA to finally admit that the money they are 'saving' on using Frostbite is far too expensive in lost productivity and eventual lost sales?

    Borderlands 3

    Unreal is by far the best thing when it comes to portability. It is the anti-Frostbite.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I really like articles like this. Even if you aren't a super gamer it is good to see how team projects go awry due to various missteps.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    AMC is completely down now and 3rd parties are locked out. From reports on Twitter it seems that in the server crush they managed to sell the same reserved seats multiple times.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    AMC is toast. Got as far as selecting seats at one point but the whole transaction system is down now. We have a nice home theater with 9 recliners in three rows. We would absolutely pay $100 to screen it at home.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    3 Hour 2 min runtime... 22 minutes longer than Infinity War. Well we will certainly be getting our monies worth.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    All-in-all the cast has performed exceptionally well over the years. Sure you have legends like Diana Rigg on the show, but a huge number of those actors in season 1 were complete and total unknowns. The casting director for that original pilot deserves some serious accolades.

    Doom Patrol

    When they said they were doing a Doom Patrol series I never imagined they would be relying on the Grant Morrison version for inspiration. So crazy and yet so damn good. I guess this is what you do when you have even less network intereference than you get from CW

    The Division 2

    They really need to do something with these skillmod requirements. Well that and the generally absurdly variant cooldowns.

    Kickstarters

    Anyone check out www.brutalityboardgame.com by any chance? They did a Kickstarter last year and are selling the game at PAX East and I'm tempted to get it if only because it's more big miniatures to paint (ran out of Gloomhaven stuff to paint...)

    X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019)

    Well there have been other holocausts since WW2, the whole Rwandan / Tutsi genocide back in the 90s would be an option. Could have Magneto as a very angry Tutsi guy who is outraged that so-called western hero nations allowed this to happen and especially that Wakanda with all its super...

    Borderlands 3

    My only reticence comes from knowing that Mikey Neumann (Scooter / former lead writer at Borderlands) probably had no hand in the development of this. I suppose its possible he worked on it before he left the company but his irreverent sense of humor is always what made the game special.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    Premiered last night and the first (pilot) episode was written by Jermaine Clement and directed by Taika Waititi. Nearly all the promo material above comes from this episode but mostly from the first act, there's still lots of fun to be had and I can't wait to see the rest of it.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I'll be there opening night advance screening whatever. I actually liked the Last Jedi and only regret that it was Episode 8 instead of Episode 7.5 as there is now an obligation to finish the Trilogy of Trilogies with this next movie.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    The Elysian keys are perhaps the dumbest fucking thing I've seen as far as 'loot crates' go. Because you only get 1 a day you are left with a choice: 1) Do a Stronghold as soon after the daily reset as you can in order to have a decent chance of having all 4 perople unlock a chest 2) Avoid...
